Broad Fit Financial, a provider of financing solutions for the health, wellness, sports and fitness industries, has been certified by the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC) as a Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE). The WBENC certification recognizes Broad Fit Financial as a women-owned and operated business that meets the rigorous standards of the WBENC.

To qualify for the certification, Broad Fit Financial underwent a thorough vetting process to ensure that the company was at least 51 percent owned, controlled, and operated by women. The company is led by Stephanie Taylor, President and co-founder and Daniella Douglas, co-founder and Vice President.

"Broad Fit is committed to a collaborative, team-focused culture where everyone is supported and has the opportunity to thrive,” said Taylor. “For us, it was important that we earned our WBENC certification to demonstrate the value we place on diversity, equity, and inclusion within our workplace, our industry, and our community.

The WBENC certification is highly valued by corporations and government agencies that are dedicated to supplier diversity and seek to work with companies that are owned and operated by underrepresented groups.

“This certification represents an opportunity to highlight women-owned businesses everywhere,” said Douglas. “Obtaining our WBENC certification is not just a badge of honor, but also allows us to participate in a vibrant community of entrepreneurial women with the common goal of business success, workplace equality, and mutual support."

As a WBE company, Broad Fit Financial will have access to a vast network of support, increased visibility, education and development programs, and networking and mentorship opportunities with thousands of professionals dedicated to the advancement of women-owned businesses.
